The Market Wizards are back!
Market Wizards: The Next Generation continues in the three-decade tradition of the hugely popular Market Wizards series, interviewing exceptionally successful traders to learn how they achieved their extraordinary performance results.
The twist in this latest instalment is that the featured traders have the youngest average age of any book in the series. Despite their relative youth, these traders have achieved performance records that rank among the very best Market Wizards of all time.
The stories include:
A musician who dropped out of school to pursue a trading career and whose current cumulative profits total nearly $500 million.
A security guard turned trader who parlayed $5,000 into over $100 million in under 12 years.
A volunteer firefighter who has not had a single losing month in over 10 years of trading.
World-renowned author and trading expert Jack D. Schwager joins forces with seasoned money manager and trading historian George F. Coyle to uncover the secrets of today's top traders. Their knowledgeable and incisive interview style encourages the Wizards to reveal the fascinating details of their training, experience, tactics, and strategies, as well as their best and worst trades. There are dashes of humour and revelations about the human side of trading throughout.
The result is an engrossing new collection of trading wisdom, brimming with insights that can help all traders improve their trading process.
